Overall Impression

Ultimate Ears ROLL 4 owners describe a compact, rugged Bluetooth speaker built for outdoor and travel use. One commenter praised the built-in bungee cord, using it to strap a phone to the speaker or attach it to a backpack or duffel bag handle while traveling. That same user is considering buying a second unit specifically to try the party mode pairing feature, though they had not tested it yet. Another commenter thanked the reviewer for demonstrating the speaker's waterproofing, saying they were unsure if it was truly 100% waterproof before seeing the video. A different user asked whether the speaker can go directly in water without the plastic base attachment shown in the review, suggesting some confusion around the accessory setup.

Widely praised

A user liked using the built-in bungee cord to strap their phone to the speaker, and mentioned looping it around a backpack or duffel bag handle while traveling through the airport.

@becuzimjj

got one for Christmas. loving it so far. I agree with you about the bungee. I like to strap my phone to it the way you did with the inflatable. Or put one of the shoulder straps or handles of a backpack or duffle bag handle when I'm going thru the airport or something. \n\nkind of bummed i didn't get the inflatable since mine was a present. But that kind of tempts me to buy another one since you can pair them and use party mode. I haven't had a chance to check that feature out yet.
